On Monday 27th of February 2023 MEND North held two workshops at the Lancashire MIND Diversity & Inclusion training in Preston. The event was organised by Lancashire MIND, the event consisting of several different training sessions delivered by various organisations.
MEND delivered as causes and cures of Islamophobia session that was tailored to working in the mental health sphere. The session informed attendees of the rampant Islamophobia in all its forms we see in the UK today. The session also covered a number of scenarios and the possible mental health effect on victims of Islamophobia. Attendees enjoyed the workshop and found it very informative for their practice.
The second workshop was delivered for the coaches and therapists with a focus on sensitivities in supporting different backgrounds and cultures, as well as the effect of Islamophobia on mental health.
Both sessions ended with a Q&A.
